Ahhhh, I am soooo sorry this took me so long you can thank the public school system for that. *sighs* Also the fact that this chapter about killed me. I wrote it three times. Why did I write it three times because the first time I wrote it, it sucked. The second time I wrote it my computer had a spaz attack and killed it. The third time well you are reading it. Anyways enjoy.

Normal POV
**********

Shadows danced across the walls as the blaze in the fireplace set them free. A figure head hung low enters the room, its red hair hiding its eyes. "Tala it's so good to see you again." Tala looked up his chilled blue eyes flashing red in the flames glow. He glared at a figure that stood facing the flames, a hood low over the figures head. "You asked to see me?" Tala said being sure to keep his distance. The figure turned to face Tala, its eyes flashing from the shadow around it. "Yes Tala I did, I am reforming the blitzkrieg boys and I want you to be on it."

Tala straitened up. "You want me to lead the Blitzkrieg Boys?" The figure laughed, before snapping his fingers above his head. "Not really we already have a leader for the new team; we just need someone who knows the ropes, A second in command if you will." A cool breeze shoots down Tala's back as he turns to look towards the door. Deep set blue eyes shadowed by dark bangs stared at him their gaze hypnotic.

"Tala, you remember Kagen correct." Kagen? There had to be a mistake, but looking back Tala knew there was not. He could still see the traces of light blue in the deep pools in front of him. Knowing what his answer had to be Tala turned back to the man in front of him. "Alright I'll do it. I suppose you are getting the old team together and just putting Kagen in place of Kai."

The figure laughed. "No, you are the only original member that we feel is still viable for this important mission. Now go, follow Kagen and go meet your new teammates." Tala did as he was told and followed Kagen but something didn't sit right with this. What had he meant by viable?

Kagen stopped in front of one of the many metal doors that lined the hallway. "Here we are, Tala." Tala glanced over at Kagen something in his voice had changed when he had said his name and when he looked at the younger boy he knew what. Sky blue eyes reflecting in the light pouring from the room meet Tala's. It wasn't until Tala saw this change did he realize just what had happened to his once close friend.

Tala leaned a little closer to the other boy. "Kagen? What did he mean by I am the only one that is viable?" Tala whispered not daring to raise it any higher. Tears sting at the clear blue eyes that face him. "Tala," He began weakly looking as he continued. "Their all dead, you are the only one left and if you don't do as they say, they'll kill you to." Tala recoiled. Dead? All of them, Brian, Ian, Spencer all of them dead?

Tala closed his mouth and reached for the door, wondering who he would find behind it. As he opened the door he felt his stomach drop. Two figures sat in the room facing a burning fire place. One of the figures turned, aqua eyes burning with a withheld flame. "Hey Tala, long time no see." One of the figures teased. "Shit."

Tyson paced in front of Kenny for the fourth time in the last three minutes. Max laughed seeing Kenny's look of distress. "Tyson chill out you are going to burn a hole into the floor." Tyson stopped pacing before turning to face Max. "I can't believe this, who do they think they are just running off like this. If they don't get back soon we'll have to forfeit the Russian tournament too."

Kenny felt his mouth drop. "Tyson you can't be serious is that really what you are worried about?! Did you not hear me when I said Voltaire is out, for all we know he could be planning to kill Kai and Ray may have just gotten in the way." Tyson plops down on the couch with a huff. "I know it's just hard to know I could be Beybladeing but instead I am stuck in some stuffy hotel room because." Tyson sits up strait mimicking Mr. Dickenson. "It's just not safe for you boys to be running around until we know what is going on." Tyson sighs, slumping back in the seat. "I mean Ray did say that we would meet up soon but if we don't go anywhere then where ever they are planning on meeting us we won't be right?"

Max sits down next to his navy haired friend. "You know chief Tyson has a point." Kenny looks down at his computer. "I know and I agree that this isn't helping but there is nothing we can do until Mr. Dickenson thinks it's safe." Tyson wined again. "Then we are never getting out." "I'm sorry Tyson." All three boys turn to face the person who had spoken, and elderly man with a round facade and kindly eyes had entered while they bickered.

"So Mr. Dickenson have you found anything?" Max asked eager to know the state of his friends. Mr. Dickenson sat down, dabbing off his fore-head with a handkerchief. Fear began to push itself up a little higher in all the Bladebreakers as the man stayed silent. "Mr. D, Have you found anything about Ray or Kai?" Tyson asked eager to hear what the old man had to say.

"I am afraid so." Kenny closed his laptop tuning in on the old man's words. "Why are you afraid so, isn't that a good thing." Mr. Dickenson dabbed off his fore-head yet again, he was sweating like it was a hundred degrees instead of eight. "No it's not. Because what we found is that they both boarded a flight to China, unfortunately that flight never made it to its destination. Not too long after take off the plane apparently experienced some technical failures and crashed back down to earth."

"You don't mean? They can't be, they aren't gone are they Mr. Dickenson?" Max asked fearing the answer he would get. "Our team found three bodies that they are extracting from the wreckage. They are all badly burned so we will have to wait for dental records to prove who they are but it seems most likely that it-" Mr. Dickenson allowed his words to trail off as he saw the faces of the Bladebreakers fall into complete devastation.

Tyson fell back into the seat behind him; Max tears already prominent in his eyes dug his head into his hands. Kenny began to breathe quickly as oxygen stopped cooperating. Tears slide down the face of all the Bladebreakers as news of their friends death sunk in. "That's not fare Ray and Kai; they can't go down like that. They just can't!" Max said his words muffled through his fingers. "I know how hard this is on all of you."

Tyson stood up walking over to the window and throwing it open. "Mr. D with all due respect I don't think you quite realize just how close we all were, especially those four." Kenny said looking at the two bladders. Tyson threw a punch at the wall, tears snaking down his cheeks. "They can't be dead! Me and Kai still have unfinished business and without Ray-" Tyson allowed his words to trail off. Max looked up his eyes and nose already red. "They were like our family. What are we supposed to do without them?"

Mr. Dickenson stood not looking at the three devastated people who sat in the room around them. "I am sorry that it happed like this. Believe me if I could change the truth I most certainly would. There is something that I need you to be aware of however." All three boys turn to face Mr. Dickenson.

"What is it?" Max asked whipping his eyes with the back of his hand. "Ray and Kai are," Mr. Dickenson took a deep breath. "Were very respected and very well known Beybladers and there will be many people asking questions. I need you to not only be careful of what you are saying but also be considerate of the other two teams that will be feeling this lose as heavily as you are."

Tyson looks down. "The White Tigers and the Blitzkrieg Boys, they don't know yet do they?" Mr. Dickenson shook his head sadly. "No you are the first ones to find out. I would rather not share this news with those two teams until we have undeniable proof. I felt however that you all deserved to know." Max looked out the window at the world below, nothing had changed really in the last ten minutes or so. So why did the whole world look so much darker to him.

"If they really are dead then I guess this is the end." Max said not looking away from the window. "What do you mean Maxi, this isn't the end." Max turned to face Tyson. "Tyson we can't be the Bladebreakers without Ray and Kai. It just isn't us without them, besides we would need another blader and who could we ever find that could fill even one of their spots much less both of them. Face it Tyson, Kai lead us and Ray held us together without them we can't be the Bladebreakers."

Tyson clinched his fist tight. "What would they think if we quite now? If we gave up on everything after we all worked so hard to get here. Your right we can never be the Bladebreakers without them but we can show the world what the Bladebreakers meant. We can find a temporary blader for different tournaments just one to fill in. we have to keep going for them, show the world who they were. If we keep blading they'll never be really gone because they will always be in our hearts and with us every step of the way."

Max whipped at his eyes again. "I guess you are right. If we give up now we give up on the one thing that can keep them alive. As long as we blade they'll never be gone forever, just like their Bitbeast. Besides there is always a chance that they are still alive right?"

Mr. Dickenson whipped at his own eyes as tears came to them. "You are all such wonderful people it just pains me to have to see you all like this. I just hope that I am wrong about all of this." Max nodded once before taking a shaky breath. "Well I guess there is nothing we can do but wait and find out."

Tala slammed the door shut before the other turned around. "He has to be joking? He wants us to be on a team with them? After all the shit they put us through?" Kagen nodded placing a hand on the door. "Voltaire claims they have worked out all the bugs." Tala scoffed. "Yeah sure, so you are saying this time they won't try to I don't know kill us?" Kagen pulled open the door slightly. "They won't try to kill us and they won't be turned against us." The one who had spoke stands back up a smile slightly shadowed by his bright orange hair. "Brooklyn, Mystel." Tala addressed the two coldly. The smaller one turned smiling slightly. "So this is the new team?"

A/N

Fare warning I am not really sure of much to do with the BEGA bladders so if I mess something up I apologize. I have this idea that they worked perfectly for so please if you could just put up with it that would be a big help.

Chaseha-Wing: yes you are right on a lot of levels. Kai's dad sucks, Kagen is going insane (poor baby) and I made a big mistake there but I hope you saw I went back and fixed it so I hope that helps explain your 'What the crap since when is Ray and Kai dumb question'( Not your words mine) Anyways hope you enjoy.

Suzanne: Hum you would think that right. But you never know my friends like to say that I am unpredictable and have things happen in unexpected ways so you never know. ^_^

My Own Demise: Or as I like to call you Mafia on Demand. Ha-ha I love you! Thanks for all your comments my caring sibling. (Yes we are siblings and friends, twins to be exact.) And for your support.

Just one last thing a quick game me and M.O.D are Twins as I stated but here is the thing one of us is a girl and one of us is a boy. Can you guess which is which?
